Went in to the local H D Dealer to schedule my 1000 mile check up on my new Ultra Classic.
When I mentioned that I wanted to switch oil to Mobil 1 V-Twin she quickly replied that doing that would have warranty implications.. She stated that she handles the warranty stuff and if I did switch she would look up the records on any warranty work and I might have a problem.. She then wanted to schedule me and I politely told her good bye..
This dealer is the same one that gave me a bid on my new bike and I got it for $2000.00 less at another dealer. Now this problem with the oil.. I feel like talking to the General Manager and pointing out how much money they are losing. The only reason I go back is the dealer is about two miles from my house..

 

Go back in and give them a copy of the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act and then shove it up their......[8D]

 

Ya know, I have the same problem here in Mn, I went in to check on a front lowering kit for my 07 sg, The guy behind the counter can't find the part # so he asks a group of guys standing around behind the counter and half of them say there is one and the other half says no, Its kinda like the weather up here if you get an answer you don't like just ask someone else? WTF, there suppose to be the Experts, and what the heck is up with $90 for labor, I wen't somewhere else.

It's all bull shat?

 

That wouldn't be St. Paul H-D would it?

 

Thats why I do my own work and why I usually go in with the part number, although the dealer closest to me is pretty good.

 

If they require you to use there oil to honor the warranty then they have to give you the oil.

 

That why they are called stealerships

 

Mobile oil has not been in the business long enough and they don't know how to make motor oil...occording to the Harley Dealers HAHA!
